Nuclear weapons have not been used in actual combat since the end of World War II. For us, their greatest military value lies in "existence" rather than "use." The focus of our nuclear strategy is to ensure the survivability and reliability of the nuclear arsenal to guarantee the effectiveness of deterrence, rather than planning how to use it on the battlefield.
Because these things are the "truth that Western hegemonism understands," they provide us with significant strategic depth and confidence in diplomatic negotiations with Western countries, and also serve as a trump card and leverage in handling the most critical international crises.
